Poll question: Geddy Lee vs. Billy Corgan
Edited on Thu Nov-13-08 11:01 AM by turtlensue
Been a few threads about these two singers the last few days. Granted they are kind of different types of rock singers but who do you prefer (no other singers please)....
;-)
Or at least who is least annoying to listen to...:D

Edited because one singer is so not on my radar I can't even remember his name

1. Of whom is this Billy Corrigan that you speak, o' turtled one?
Perhaps he be the lead singer of the O'Pumpkins Smashed?

2. I don't care for either
But since Geddy Lee is featured on the Bob and Doug McKenzie comedy album, I have to tip my hat to the Canadian.

3. Fans of good football teams know who Billy Corgan is and respect him.
Fans of overrated NFC East teams, on the other hand, are functionally clueless as to all aspects of life.

4. Oh yeah.
Beating the Cleveland Browns and the Bengals gives you such bragging rights doesn't it?:rofl:

8. Good thing there aren't any overrated NFC East teams, then, eh?
Just the underrated variety.

9. I hate hockey, don't drink beer, and think Rush sucks.
I never said I was a GOOD Canadian. :P

6. Corgan bores me. At least Geddy Lee makes me chuckle quietly to myself.

10. I was going to say Corgan bores me, and Lee makes me actively cringe.
Not sure which I prefer. I am not sure I've ever deliberately listened to an entire Smashing Pumpkins song without changing the channel or drifting off into unawareness.

11. Oh come on, folks.

I'm not one to jump on the Rush hate bandwagon, but seriously. Your average run of the mill Canadian versus one of the best guitarists and lyricists of his generation.

12. I always thought Corgan's shit voice sounded like it
Edited on Thu Nov-13-08 11:39 AM by Twillig
was a pose, an affectation. Nails on a chalkboard. :thumbsdown:

Geddy Lee is just cursed with what he has. :thumbsup:

13. Geddy
I like a few SP songs, but I like more Rush songs.

Heh, Rush's Moving Pictures was one of the first albums I bought, actually. :)

14. Where is the option for "They Both Suck?"
I must've missed it.

16. In that case, Corgan sucks less than Geddy Lee.
But not my much.
